About the role

As eHNA (Electronic Holistic Needs Assessment) support officer you will play an important role in helping Macmillan achieve its aim of supporting everyone with a diagnosis of cancer, to be treated as a person, not just a disease.

We have some big ambitions to expand the use of the eHNA across health as social care in the coming months and years, and so its an exciting time to join the team. You will be the first point of contact for the many key stakeholders across the UK who have responsibility for implementing the eHNA and other Recovery Package (RP) interventions.

We are looking for someone with experience of working in a complex environment, preferably healthcare and who is comfortable working on multiple tasks with the occasional interruption and changing priorities. A working knowledge of project management systems and procedures will be required. You will be helping to provide assurance on data protection principles and liaising with developers, so some exposure to either or both of these areas of work would be an advatange.

And in return for all this? We commit to actively developing you and offer benefits including a 34.5 hour week (with early finish on Fridays), private medical insurance, life assurance, pension, childcare vouchers, generous annual leave, and interest free loans for season ticket and gym membership.

Closing Date: 31 May 2018

Working At Macmillan

Our ambition is to reach and improve the lives of everyone living with cancer and to inspire millions of others to do the same. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​There are 2.5 million people living with cancer in the UK today, and as more people live longer with their cancer, this number is set to grow to 4 million by 2030.

Our work is only possible because of the amazing people that make up Macmillan. The work you do will have a direct impact on people's lives, so if you're ready to explore your potential, Macmillan could be the place for you. Life with cancer is still life - let’s help people live it.

Our people

Meet the people who make up Macmillan.

Peter, welfare rights advisor

Money worries are the last thing you need when you're facing the toughest fight of your life. But, if cancer's causing the bills to pile up, a chat with a welfare rights adviser, like Peter, could help you get back on top of things.

Kim, cancer information nurse specialist

As a specially-qualified nurse, Kim has the expertise to answer any medical questions you have about cancer. You can reach Kim, and other nurse specialists, on the Macmillan Support Line - they're just a phone call away.

Keynes, oncology dietitian

Keynes is a Macmillan oncology dietitian. She sees people on the wards or in clinics, and offers them nutritional support or dietary advice.

Debbie, information manager

Debbie works in an information centre. If you or a loved one has cancer, or you're worried about cancer, Debbie can help answer questions, give you free booklets and leaflets, or just listen if you need to to talk things through.

‘It’s the best job I’ve ever had. Every day there’s something new and exciting happening.’

What We Do For You

We look after you

You can sign up for private medical insurance which we pay for (except for your personal tax liability) and includes the option to buy extra cover for your family.

We give you 25 days holiday a year. You will be given an extra day’s annual leave in the new holiday year following the one in which you complete one year’s continuous service, until you reach the maximum of 30 days. We adjust this if you’re part-time.

You can apply for a season ticket loan to help keep your travel costs down or take out a loan for gym membership. Both these loans are interest-free.

There is also the option to exchange part of your salary for childcare vouchers and save up to £1,195 per year in tax and national insurance costs.

Macmillan will pay three times your salary as life assurance to the person you choose.

We reward you

At Macmillan our high-performance culture represents who we are and this is evident in those who continuously make Macmillan a great place to work. As such, each year we review our salaries to reward people's hard work and impact.

Macmillan also believe in showcasing the great work our people do, which is why we have a Recognition Award Scheme designed to recognise our high performing teams and individuals.

Macmillan is also proud to be a Living Wage Employer since 2014, accredited by the Living Wage Foundation.

We help you grow

As an organisation, Macmillan places high value on personal development and we strive to give people the opportunity to realise their full potential. We know it's important that you get off on the right foot so we plan an induction introducing you to the organisation and its people. It will also set the context of your role in supporting people affected by cancer whilst maintaining our commitment to Macmillan’s values.

We will ensure we support your transition into Macmillan and the challenges this brings. Coaching and support will be offered which might include a buddy or a mentor
